The unknows objects which have been recorded by ksn for quite some time are reliable?

[jony327]

I notice that there are a lot of objects which  have been recorded by ksn for quite some time and are still labelled as unknown. Are these objects ignored or recognized as uninjurious ? Can they be regarded as safe in some degree?

@jony327 Welcome.

Can you please provide some examples.

Like lumerical daemon which appeared in ksn 3 years ago.

In some cases KSN didn’t receive enough  data from users all over the world.
You can always submit an object on https://opentip.kaspersky.com/ and ask for reanalyze.

In my understanding such dynamic anlysis had been performed when an object was first uploaded to ksn.  Therefore all the existing “unknown” objects in ksn had passed the above analysis so that they are safe in some degree. Am I right?

@jony327   Yes, Virus Lab is checking the objects and participants in KSN will be protected against threats  immediately.

Another question is that the snaptimer( an app. trusted by ksn) doesnot appear in any of my app. groups although I have run it many times. It is very strange . It is the only exception I have noticed. Do you know the possible reason?

@jony327 Can you please specify the product that you are using ?

[jony327]

I know why.  It exists but is covered by a wrongly attributed software vendor.  This bug, as I heard, was also reported by other users.
